@@StoneyRidgeFarmer I thank you kind sir!
Love what you are doing, going against the tide and proving that their are more options then just the big industrial farms!!
I love your channel and I love when you say "aigh- riiight"
Cows look great, you got your size right.
Never let your guard down when in the presence of Wooley Bully!!!
I’m in Texas this week. We drove by a MASSIVE feed lot. I was so sad. Thank you for your happy Cows Just subscribed to your LIVE channel
Your cows look so healthy! We dairy farmed for years and did it the conventional way. However, I love seeing clean healthy cows on pasture. The video is very informative and I can see this way of pasturing is healthy for the cows.
I wish all farmers were like you! I don't eat meat for ethical and health reasons, but I 'm so happy your cows are living their best life before slaughter day! Thank you....
Ethical reasons? Hear me out on this......Please explain...you do understand that thousands of small animals die when grain is harvested and that buying into the GMO and Glyphosate laden grain based protein is the reason that there's a dead zone in the Gulf of Mexico right? I'm not trying to sell you on beef...but if it's ethics we're talking about....and you're eating plant based protein...you're buying into and voting with you $$$ every day for tillage, GMO and petroleum based fertilizers which are absolutely destroying our planet. My farm sequesters carbon.....big ag and commercial fertilizers are destroying our planet all for the sake of cheap food and plant based proteins. Since the dawn of time "big animal eat small animal"...until now....big omnivore makes the conscious decision to become herbivore. Genetics my friend....the K-9 tooth in our mouths tells it all. Again...not trying to be down on your decision...however the "ethical and health" reason is an unfounded excuse for a conscious decision and in my opinion brainwashing by the mainstream media and even many physicians to fool us all into thinking and feeding into the gov't subsidized GMO mega farm food system!! Ah...it irks me so bad!! Every healthy ecosystem relies on both predator and ruminant animal, bird, insect, arachnid and rodent....EVERY HEALTHY ECOSYSTEM MY FRIEND!
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer I eat mostly plants...none of that fake protein crap. ..sorry if I upset you! when i eat animals, my body hates it. i don't listen to the gov or media...just youtubers lol...make my own decisions. however, if I were to eat animals, I would purchase from a farmer like you. oh, and if the canine tooth in our mouth was designed to eat meat, why do we cut it with knives and why don't we just walk into the woods and take down animals with our bare hands and teeth and then cook it? I don't see other species buying guns, traps, stoves, salt, pepper, bbq sauce. food for thought, pun intended lol
You're having another hurricane if you are stay safe love the videos 🤠
Hey Josh thank you for the video woo
Hi..... Josh nice to see you, thank you for showing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 👕🐔🐓🐣🐥🐕🐈🐄🐖🐝🌱🏡🎥👍👍👍
thanks for the video and information. have a great week-end
Thank you Josh!!
WoooooooooHeeeeeeeHeeeeeeeeee!!!!Alright!!!!🤗🤗🤗🤗
Still, if I had the space and resources you have, I would try this. Put in an acre by rows of comfrey. It mines minerals from over 10 feet down to the green leaves yielding high protein for a green plant. Chickens, rabbits, cattle love it. Rocky soil is a benefit as this plant's roots take fresh minerals from the rocks as they intertwine between the cracks. Robust roots go so deep dry spells do not kill it. I would get a mower with attached leaf mulcher set to the width of the rows, collect the leaves above 4 inches, and feed them directly to your animals before it spoils, or like hay, let it sit on the ground to dehydrate and then feed it to the animals. You could also not use a leaf mulcher and let the fodder blow to the side that is mowed grass to dry there and then come by with a vacuum when ready. Mix that with the right clover and you have a high protein nitrogen fixer mixed in with the comfrey. Comfrey roots can be divided to propagate as well and they will last for years. I would take the time to experiment with this idea and when ready, publish a paper on this new way to grow healthy prime animals ready for the market. Thanks, by the way for showing respect and care for your animals. You rock! I will grow some between my apples and blueberries, looking into raising rabbits that make perfect fertilizer that will be meat for the miniature schnauzers we raise here.
Yummy nice herd.
Love your point of view on livestock!
Awesome video josh. Really enjoy your content and the way your farm is run and how you treat your animals is by far way better than the way I've seen and dealt with. Keep up the awesome work
Thanks so much buddy
I learnt a lot from this
Awesome video thanks for sharing with us
Thank you for the video.
Thanks, enjoyed
I just love the way you care about your animals Josh… Giving them their best life, with just one bad moment. If only all farmers cared about their animals like you do how much better our food systems would be.
Howdy Josh, Texas
Very educational. Thank you.
This video is so informative and useful!
Perfect. thanks You
Just found your channel. I think we may be neighbors. I live right off of 421. Look at a couple of my stupid KZhead videos that nobody watches. you may recognize some of the surroundings. and, no, I’m not in Mexico.
I agree with you Josh, 100%! I've seen a comparison between grain fed beef, verses grass fed beef. We should learn what to look for, because I don't think grocery stores are always honest, when they put a sticker on the package.
I have 15 beef cows that I rotate between 2 5 acre tracts
Great video brother!
Great video, thank you! New subscriber, looking forward to watching more of your content.....fellow Tar Heel
Great information, as always Josh If I get lucky enough I'll implement that,thanks
What happen to the other donkey ?
Do the cows eat the broom-straw?
They eat the sweetest grass first then they eat the next sweetest etc. If left on the same pasture long enough they will eat about anything above ground. Broom straw would be one of the last- depending on it's stage of growth. They will eat fully mature, dried up broom straw before eating a snowball.
Hey dude, why you put numbers on the cow 🐄❓️
that's how we identify and keep records...very tough to keep records without having numbers

Do you vaccinate your cows?
No. He said it in the video.
@@vaughn1804 I heard him say he doesn't use antibiotics but I didn't hear him say that he doesn't vaccinate them. Two different things
